At the end of Riverdale's freshman season, it was revealed that Betty Cooper's mother Alice had given up a son for adoption after she had gotten pregnant in high school. And now we finally know who will be playing Betty's long lost brother: actor Hart Denton.

TV Line broke the news that Hart would be filing the role of Chic on Friday (October 6). He will reportedly appear halfway through the second season. The details about the character are still slim, but there are several theories circulating on the internet postulating that FP Jones, AKA Jughead's dad, is also Chic's father. This would help explain the iciness that was often displayed between FP and Alice during the first season.

Hart is a relative newcomer whose only acting credits on IMDB are appearances in Fun Mom Dinner and an episode of the Lethal Weapon television series. It looks like he's based out of Los Angeles from his Instagram account.

And Chic isn't the only new face that we'll see in the upcoming season of Riverdale. Also joining the cast is Vanessa Morgan as Southsider Toni Topaz, Mark Consuelos as Veronica's father Hiram Lodge, and Charles Melton jumping in as Reggie Mantle after Ross Butler bowed out.

Fans were quick to welcome Hart to Riverdale. One person tweeted at him, "can’t wait to see u as chic cooper on Riverdale." Others are already envisioning storylines for him. Another person tweeted, "Highkey hoping Chic Cooper makes out with Kevin in the bathroom at Pop’s Diner." It's not out of the realm of possibility since we know that Kevin will be getting a new love interest or two during the upcoming season.

We'll have to wait and see how Chic ends up involved in the sleepy town of Riverdale and we're sure there'll be plenty of Cooper family drama with his addition. The second season of Riverdale premieres October 11 on The CW.
